Guys, I'm trying to automate my silver trading. Any recommendations for good backtesting software? I've used a few, but finding one that handles XAGUSD volatility well is proving difficult. Maybe something that integrates well with MT5? Need to test strategies properly before deploying live.

@achowdhury952 Amit, backtesting XAGUSD is tough, I agree. The volatility needs handling. Have you tried using tick data instead of just daily or H4? It's more resource intensive but gives you a better picture of the whipsaws. Metatrader 5 is ok, but honestly, I prefer TradingView's Pine Script for quick prototyping and testing before moving to a more robust platform. Thinkorswim is also good, but the learning curve is steeper. Backtesting is crucial, good luck with it!
